Some movie moments live rent-free in our heads. Not because of the dialogue, not because of the plot twist, but because the song hits at exactly the right second.

This week on The Hi-Five Podcast, we’re counting down our favorite movie soundtrack songs. The ones that don’t just play in a film, but define the moment. From adrenaline pumping classics to quiet emotional gut punches, these are the songs that instantly transport you back to a specific scene the second they start.

We’re not talking about scores or background music, these are the needle drops that made us feel something. They changed how we hear the song forever, and sometimes even changed the movie itself.
